Remember this pic from about a month ago? This was just from a simple 45 minute ride through the fields. I wanted to walk, he wanted to fight the bit and prance the entire time.
Here's Logan trying to pet Sarge, Logan is still a little nervous around the horses. Sarge is cute, if the boys are near him he's always sniffing all over them.... Logan just wasn't so sure about it!
Looking handsome after a good grooming. Yes this is a bad angle, I swear his wither doesn't normally look at the high and he isn't going sway backed!
After that grooming we went for a ride. He did so good!!!! Look at that chest, just simple sweat, no lather. It was 80 degrees out that day and he's still got a full winter coat on so I expected that sweat. I took him down a couple of highways and he did fantastic! No spooking, no prancing, nothing... just walked along like a pro. This is after a month with no grain. The answer to our problem was definitely the grain.... he is like a toddler cracked out on sugar when he gets fed grain on a daily basis!

How fun! I haven't rode a horse since I was little! I would love to try again!
